Mullets were the hairstyle to have, yet really, for men back in the eighties and the Beastie Boys later helped immortalise the hairy look in their 1994 song Mullet Head.
And now that short on top, long at the back style will be back - for this weekend at least - at what's described as the 'world's first mullet-only salon' in Newcastle. Dirty Gertie’s Mullet Salon will open its doors in the city centre on Saturday where it will be recreating the hairstyle of yesteryear for free for willing volunteers.
Geordie favourite Vicky Pattison will officially open the salon in High Bridge where for two days only of live cutting action, with the free haircuts courtesy of online gaming site Foxy Bingo which is out to find the foxiest mullet in the UK. And, in keeping with its name, it will be hosting games of musical bingo every hour, with party tunes and prizes up for grabs.
